Friends or family hey? tough one, but then so easy.. the friends that come and go, they come second, but my true friends, well they are my family, and my family are also my friends, fair enough we carefully select and choose our friends according to similarities or differences with our own hobbies, looks, likes, dislikes, interests, we scrutanize them, dissect them, and fall in love with them, they become as close as family, and as for family, we grow to love them for their good and bad traits, we learn how to affect thier lives for the better and the worse, we get inside thier heads and expose them for who they are and they do the same to us, there is no choice, true friends should be family and family should be friends.

I prefer family and I alway put my family in the first place. No matter how close friends are they are still friends and family is different they will alway be there for you.

Hi vimaal, For me family comes first because they will always be there for you till the day you die but friends are there for you but in years to come your friends would have all gone with their own famulies and move away one day and that it, you will never hear from them again so I know families are for the rest of your life.

next to me is friend and being with me is my family. Being with me always gives less happiness and next to me is outsider gives short term happiness. So i want to live for me first and then for next to me

its obvious you tell us friend and when you have to choose one you will surely go for your family who ever the friend may be and it applies to all the people here i think and if your friend is in the situation like this even they might have opted their family first. and same applies to me i have to select my family if i have to choose one among family and friend. but friends are also important but the family is going to help you in all your needs and at every point of life and not the friends. friends can just advice us but cant take care of us like how our family does for us. family understand us, co-operate with us and help us in all stages of life and this cannot be expected from friends. they can just do a little but cannot be compared with family. and i think both have its different place but when asked to choose one among them i will surely go for a family first.
